It was the deadliest string of shark attacks the world has ever seen. In 2011, sharks in Réunion, a beautiful island, way out in the Indian Ocean started biting people way more than ever before and with lunatic violence.

Professor John Barry is the C0-Director of the Centre for Sustainability, Equality and Climate Action at Queen's University Belfast, and C0-Chair of the Belfast Climate Commission.
He’s also a recovering politician, public servant, electric-car driving, foldable bicycle riding activist himself, as well as a lover of The Lorax by Dr Seuss — but I’ll let John tell you more about that himself.
In today’s episode we talk about:
- His origin story as a climate-activist
- Why we have the wrong end of the stick when it comes to “climate change”
- What the economy is actually for
- The wisdom of Dr Seuss, Lord Of The Rings, The Matrix and more
- And most importantly, what you and I can do to take meaningful action.
